Small Business Family Update – April 2019 🎉💍

Where to start? For those of you that have been with us for a while, you know we put out small updates from time to time on how the business is progressing & a bit about the team behind the scenes.

We’ve got quite a few bits to share! Firstly, myself & Laura took our first real break for the first time in some 3 years (since launching PP) and made a trip over to California in mid-March. Mike bravely stepped up to the plate & covered the load while we were away, with me being able to do bits remotely each morning. Thankfully all seemed to go incredibly smoothly!

After 7 years together, 18 months of working together & living together, I finally popped the question & she said yes!

Being in California gave us a fantastic chance to celebrate with my brother & his wife (living in San Diego and that we haven’t had the opportunity to see in 5 years!?) before flying home!

Unfortunately, on our return we got met with the devastating news that a very close family member is fighting her second battle with the dreaded c-word; diagnosed while we were away.

Probably needless to say, it’s been a whirlwind of emotions these past few weeks for all of us. I’ve been fortunate enough to be able to attend multiple hospital appointments & support this person as best I possibly can to get it gone, with both Mike & Laura doing a fantastic job of taking the reins day-to-day at PP.

Primarily, I wanted to take this opportunity to explain & apologise if we’ve been quiet or a little slower to respond these last few weeks. I’ve honestly been struggling to get my head back in the right place, but I can promise you this small family business is utterly dedicated to serving our incredibly loyal customer base.

We appreciate you guys more than you know – we’re all too aware of how short life can be & what it means to really be there to serve each & every individual as exactly that: an individual. We would not be here without you all supporting this small business! We know you have the option to shop elsewhere, but the fact you choose us each & every time means the absolute world to us. It fuels us to continue doing better by you!
